Sohaila McKee Commercial Photographer
Sohaila McKee photographer at Vizz Creative
Born in Iran where the colours, the gorgeous smells and the culture of food were very much ingrained in my DNA, it is not a wonder that food photography now gives me such an amazing buzz. When working on a food photo shoot, I love the process of planning the shoot, researching the props, the composition and the food styling. I am not strictly a food stylist, but my design background has enabled me to carry out this task for my clients. When working with chefs or food producers I enjoy bouncing ideas back and forth until we are satisfied the food I am photographing is a great demonstration of their artistry.
When photographing products or buildings, I am certain that my three dimensional design training comes into play. I understand the time, effort and creativity that is involved in producing a well considered product or building. Many of my product clients are in the creative sector - in every shoot l make sure their creativity is shining through.
Having worked in the advertising industry, previously employing commercial photographers and now working as a commercial photographer myself, I believe I have a greater insight into my clients’ requirements than I might otherwise have.
